Head coach of Astrakhan FC Volgar dismissed from his post

Igor Kolyvanov is no longer the head coach of Volgar Astrakhan. This was reported by the press service of the football club.

Kolyvanov headed the team in May 2026. Under his leadership, Volgar managed to keep a place in the group “Gold” at the end of the second stage of the season 2025/26.

However, in the current championship, the team’s results were less successful. For 17 matches, Astrakhan scored 15 points and for the tour before the completion of the first stage lost the chance to stay in the group “Gold”.

The club thanked Kolyvanov for his work and professionalism, wishing him success in his future career.

To act as head coach in the upcoming match against Kirov “Dynamo” will be Nail Magzhanov.
